I just read on another repair forum that if you hear the clicks coming from the top back of the machine then it's probably the control ccu, and if the clicks sound like they're coming from the door, then you need a new door lock. What do you think?

Measure the ohms across the door lock switch when door is closed. If very low ohms, you probably have a bad control board.

You need a new door lock. It seems to happen on mine when the spin goes wild and the machine knocks really hard. I've replaced a few of them on mine. Check the shock absorber too. I think when that goes bad the machine starts to knock in the spin cycle.
